Trailer: Identity ThiefI love me some Melissa McCarthy, almost to an unhealthy point, but this new trailer for Identity Thief doesn't bode well. I was able to write off the first trailer for the flick as goofy since I was still in love with McCarthy's goofy persona (and Rick Ross), but I can't seem to do the same here. Getting to see more of the plot and her mannerisms, I realize that McCarthy was just typecast as the "big goofy, and loud, woman" when I know she's capable of much more than that (you should watch Mike and Molly!) I'd hate to see her go down that road when there's potential there. Look, watch the trailer, and try to argue that McCarthy wasn't getting annoying. That's right...you can't [via Apple] Did you know?

3:00 PM on 05.10.2013 This Is Spinal Tap soundtrack getting reissued on vinylThis Is Spinal is one of the best movies of the 1980s and one my my favorite movies of all time. It's still the grandaddy of the mockumentary genre, and I don't think it'll be topped in terms of execution or sheer quality. Th...
2:00 PM on 05.10.2013 Review: How Sweet It IsOne of my favorite comedies is Waiting for Guffman, the first of those Christopher Guest-directed ensemble mockumentaries. It plays well with the goofiness of amateur theater and really embraces the hokey vibe of stage musica...
